I have a reasonably good golf swing but my decision making on the golf course can lead to some big scores. Ty has a reasonably poor golf swing but his decision making on the course allows him to shoot similar scores as me. In todays video, Ty gives me advice on how to think like a scratch golfer to improve my scores and lower my handicap!

I Was Taught to Think Like a Scratch Golfer

Back N here at jge I’m trying to go as low as possible in the voice over me and Ty Ty’s going to give me his advice on what he would have done differently because he knows his way around this golf course a lot better than me and he

Honestly makes better decisions than me so we’re going to let me swing free and then Ty’s going to tell us what he would do I love you hitting driver here even though it’s kind of tight and it’s only 400 yards but I mean you get down there

Far enough anyway so you’ll have a good look well I skyed it but it’s fine 155 yards here Le and gentlemen um I’m going to put it in I don’t like that mindset yeah terrible mindset why am I tugging everything sure the bunker I mean whether you’re trying to miss it or not

It was a good place to miss yeah I’ll take it just only problem is it leaves me with a chip which I’m not great at but great Club selection here because you have green to work with so you can definitely just keep the ball down on

The ground um would you have taken a wedge here or I I I would go 54 degree all day and I would air short to give myself an uphill putt versus this kind of Tickler that you gave yourself here totally that was scary but I mean you

Accepted Bogey and you just like you know made a stress free bogey versus trying to make the par than fighting for double or so what I didn’t like was you didn’t look at the hole from the bottom side on one that’s that downhill but what I love was that you weren’t super

Aggressive and you just got the pace right so you eliminated the dou cuz I never double look the whole I know my short game is weak so in that situation I PL an iron a little bump and run mhm again I like the Club selection such

A good strike yeah took you know driver puts me in that bunker half the time0 yard with helping wind is a perfect n iron so that’s what I’m so ball above your feet and you’re trying to hit a cut like I remember filming this just thinking this Ball’s going right yeah

See I honestly didn’t know that really yeah and that’s where you beat me you know these uphill there you go you just said uphill eye so went upstairs with that I that again though you know what you got it on the green though mm right oh that pot almost jeez exactly

And that’s what happens when you just get the ball on the green versus like trying to put it to two feet then you leave it short and then you’re chipping again definitely driver is kind of mandatory on this hole 149 yards here I’m going a semi soft N9

Iron this would okay this one was uphill uphill lie worked out though I don’t even know how like different types of Lies when I’m hitting irons even affect the ball and that’s the type of stuff that you actually know MH and like it all depends if there’s like enough Gras

Behind the ball where you think you’re still going to get through it cleanly though it’s probably going to come up with less Spin and go further 153 yards I’m trying to get a nine iron there after seeing TI I don’t know if I can that was just a little bit of a shank

What are you doing and even you saying like you didn’t know if you could get it there probably a different club would have helped you get more near the green but that’s a filthy freaking shot I mean that the camera doesn’t really do that Justice actually no yeah doesn’t oh okay

Okay the camera did that justice so oh my I almost missed that too yeah if we could go mind my long you know my long iron driver with your short games that’s that’s where I’d like to get so I need to learn from you a lot on the the short game

Stuff I’m going to be reasonably aggressive here go with the hybrid Leave myself maybe 100 in 120 uh I got a steer clear this drive went the water so I’m going to fade it off it I’m really cutting it today obviously just trying to stay away from the water there but

Mhm I’ve had drives near the water before so I was so far back that water I got a good lie here in the left rough I’m going 54° I got 121 yard back pin so I’m okay if it goes I like it you thought that thought thought that shot

Through I probably have been listening to you this round because I quite often don’t think those through oh yeah that’s fine I think we were talking about this earlier like I have a decent swing it’s mostly my mindset and then a few just decis things I don’t

Know I want you to be more aggressive on those in general yeah yeah and I mean this round was probably a month or two ago so I think I’ve been a little bit better at trying to get it there or past the holes but yeah I lose a lot of Strokes

Just not getting into the hole at least it got around that so Graham’s going to go upstairs with it I think the route to take is hitting a low bump out that way even missing the green but he’s not doing that yeah I’m always through that little Gap up there right

58° it actually almost worked I think that t-shot happened because you you come over it when you go soft and it just goes weak and left Yes Yes actually you’ve been mentioning that lately too and I it’s it messes me up every time when I try to take some off the driver I

Can take out some off other clubs but no driver I just end up slicing it off the planet wow you made a three-footer look at mey oh I got the slices today Hey cuz you’re not swinging through it like you normally do you’re just guiding it you

Know this a scary hole it’s fine all right 21 to the pin going to be a bit of an idiot and go at it with a four iron but I’m going to punch it so it cuts a little bit I’m sure you’re going to critique me but watch it’s going to

Work didn’t work I don’t need to say nothing here where did that go in the creek oh yeah not the play I would have done okay well I know I’m about to get roasted for that last uh decision but we’re going with a 54 degree here from

84 yards taking the scen gr Little Red Ball action yeah where’d that come from I think I made up that yardage too I can’t see red ball so uh yeah landed up on that Slow Rolling I don’t know if you meant to do it but I all I

Wanted you to do was aim right at the middle of the green to hopefully catch that slope down to yeah totally exactly what you’re aiming for right I was oh get in buckets oh that would have been one of the greatest Bogies I’ve ever seen I was

Going to pull out the whole who do you think you are what’s that from you’re unlimited bowling col you got to Google that if you haven’t who Do You Think You Are I Am 171 I’m musling it there with an eight iron just dumbfounded hope that’s in the

Bunker I think so okay it was I like the Club selection with the eight iron yeah and I mean wow that was a filthy little bunker shot too get hit it hit it hit hit it wow oh my God it hang dude you’re unlimited we talking about that Russell wison

GL that’s how you do it that’s how you do it son told you it was a good shot out of the bunker you got me speechless that part three Master Class there I’m going to show you guys how to his five show us how to play this part five

Eh did I go bunker I don’t know I think we both there good start same uh same situation as you I hope it’s not in the bunker yeah all right I caught the sand down there with a IR I you know looking at that I knew it

Was going to hit the lip four iron trying to get out of that yeah I mean again just seven iron to the fat part that was a bad idea wow 214 to the p I got hybrid I’m putting it on green R now this is where you Excel as a golfer

No one can do this this is so good just what hitting a a long shot onto the green dude you you put it closer with your hybrid than you do a n iron or or a wedge yeah little hybrid from 220 well gram hit an unreal shot in

There with his hybrid I’m choking on a mosquito right now I was holding that in you made birdie that’s still an unreal par thank you little Sandy Bird yeah not not a great score on the round but no but I do think like just a couple things if you changed like you’d

Save three shots on yeah I think if you were out there as my caddy that round you would have been like whoa don’t do that you probably would have saved me a few Strokes do you guys think we should do that as a video idea where I caddy

For Graham even though we have pretty much the same handicap but we definitely excel in different areas do you think is that a video you guys would like to watch if if so let us know in the comments I think they’ll definitely say yes like I think that would be I

Honestly think you could drop my score by five shots a round mhm yeah on average yeah yeah thanks guys peace
